Bath re-enamelling in Ormsgill, done in place
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We’re frequently asked to fix a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and an old resurfacing that’s failing, in Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Ormsgill
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
People typically call us when they notice one of these:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- When it can be used again
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A bath split right through the body
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A bath that is rusted through
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Why repair rather than replace?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Why book with us
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Everything repaired in place
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
See our full price list and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Have chips seen to early
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a full day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Open a window if you can
